Obviously I'm new here and probably won't post much. But here's my story.

I've had three F150's over the years, last one being a '04 CC. A true nightmare since the day I drove it off the lot. Check engine light, airbag light, warped rotors and worste was the "shimmy" issue since day one. I even had Ford engineers drive my truck and they offered no help. As much as I loved it, I just couldn't drive it anymore... And that was after 110k miles. It vibrated so much it threw all the wheel weights. I gave up!

I set out to test drive everything I could in search of the perfect truck for me. I was more interested in "feelings" than price. Looked at and drove everything from 30k to 60k. After a few weeks of researching, I joined the Ram family[emoji2].

I vowed I wouldn't join any forums. With my F150, I HAD to join every one so I could download every TSB I could find since there were so many issues. But here I am, not searching for remedies, but looking for accessories [emoji12].

The members here are far different than the Ford forums. You guys like your trucks. What a Ford guy views as an issue, you guys call it a quirk... I like this thought process.

It was kind of funny... when I was test driving different makes... The salesman wouldn't shut up... Pointing out every detail of their vehicles. I visited 3 Ram dealers, driving different setups and the salesman didn't say a word. I really think they let the truck do the talking. Hell , I didn't even know I had floor storage until after I signed on the dotted line. [emoji8]

I'm not here to bash or flame... Ford just left a sour taste for me. As many problems as I had, I loved my F150's till the day I traded them. But I don't think I have ever been so happy with a vehicle than my 2015 Ram Bighorn CC. Looking forward to reading much and posting little from this point on.

Welcome! I too had previously had a ford that gave me nothing but problems and hurt pockets. Alot of it though may or may not have been my insatiable thirst to drive it like a crazy man on a mission. But thats neither here no there now, anyways welcome and enjoy that sweet new ride!

Welcome aboard! I came from the Blue Oval camp and I couldn't be happier with the switch. While I didn't have the constant headache you did- the F150 did have it's ups and downs- mostly downs.

Welcome! I'm a ford convert. 3 F150 since 2007. The never did me wrong besides the ecoboost intercooler stumble tsb the dealer wasn't too keen to perform.

I mainly switched because I'm a mopar guy at heart. The new ram with the barracuda...
